- How would you guys rate the Revell '40 Ford Coupe and Convertible Street Rod kits? *NM*
- I built the ProModeler convertible when it was first issued, as the street rod. I don't recall any issues. Terry Jesse had an article in the January 2001 issue of Scale Auto on building the stock version. I also have the coupe street rod and the standard kits but haven't
- sorry, don't remember the issue, but Tim Boyd had an article on combining the street rod and the stock one. Like usual, it was a great read and an imaginative build. *NM*
- And if you want to upset the purists, build one as a 1940 Ford Deluxe Roadster, no wind up windows & small chrome dots along the door outside edges for the clip on windows......approx 30 genuine 1940 Ford Roadsters were built by Ford in Oz, a mate has a 1:1 version....lol. *NM*
- The convertible is probably the single best '40 Ford kit out there, and mine's not even completed yet, just painted. *NM*
- So, Mike L, both Revell 40 Fords are excellent--clean tooling, great detail, good decals, etc. I did have trouble getting the running boards and rear fenders to line up and fit to the bodies as well as the old AMT kit with one-piece assembly. *NM*
